  • Support for Workers Displaced in the Decline of the Japanese Coal Industry: Formal and Informal Support Naoko Shimazaki Waseda University
    Support for Workers Displaced in the Decline of the Japanese Coal Industry: Formal and Informal Support Naoko Shimazaki Waseda University Japan’s coal industry met its demise following a number of stages of restruc- turing under policies to change the structure of the energy industry. More than 200,000 coal mine workers were displaced from 1955 onward. The task of providing measures for displaced workers was recognized as an issue to be addressed at national level and such initiatives were considered to have con- siderable significance for the interests of society as a whole. This led to the development of substantial support systems of the kind not seen in other in- dustries, and comprehensive measures were adopted to cover not only reemployment, but also relocation, housing, and vocational training. However, fundamental issues faced by the unemployed were left unresolved. Formal support therefore in fact relied on the strength of individual companies and re- gional communities, and developed distinct characteristics. The insufficiencies of the formal support systems were compensated for by informal support based on personal relationships which were characteristic of the unique culture of coal mining. In particular, there was a strong sense of solidarity among fel- low mine workers. The support for displaced workers included not only finan- cial assistance, but also individual support, such as individual counselling and employment assistance provided by former coal mine employees acting as counselors. The labor unions played a central role in developing these measures. Such support was very strongly in tune with the workers’ culture generated within coal mining communities. I. Coal Policy and Measures for Displaced Workers in Japan The coal industry is a typical example of industrial restructuring in Japan.

This year, all research units, most of which were founded or reorganized in April 2006, concentrated on their research plans. About half of NIES researchers have been involved in four priority programs: climate change, sustainable material cycles, environmental risk, and the Asian environment. The other half have per- formed fundamental and pioneering studies in the six research divisions – Social and Environmental Systems, Environmental Chemistry, Environmental Health Sci- ences, Atmospheric Environment, Water and Soil Envi- ronment, and Environmental Biology – as well as in the Laboratory of Intellectual Fundamentals for Environ- mental Studies. Through collaboration with researchers both nationally and internationally, we have produced a number of outcomes for a wide range of environmental issues at the local, national, regional, and global levels. In particular, our long-term contribution to the work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change was rewarded with its winning of the Nobel Peace Prize for 2007. Our research activities and our outreach ac- tivities, such as the dissemination of research findings and other environmental information through press releases, our homepage, public symposia, and open campus days, received an A grade rating from the Examination Committee of the Ministry of the Environment.
